CCIS’s silver award for best innovation – Florian

The creators of Florian (Massimo Makovac, Martin Žerjal, Primož Podboj and Aleš Miklavec) and the representatives of the most innovative companies were given a speech by Borut Pahor, the President of the Republic of Slovenia and Samo Hribar Milič, the President of the Chamber of Commerce.

ATech registered the new innovation Florian as an intelligent device that automatically regulates the draft in a flue gas pipe. It is the only one of its kind not only in Europe but in the world. When installed on the flue gas pipe used for wood burning stoves, Florian automatically regulates the draft in the chimney pipe generating the optimal combustion conditions in the stove.

The Chamber of Commerce of Slovenia awarded the best innovators in Slovenia for 2012 – 11 gold, 20 silver and 9 bronze awards, and 2 recognitions. The Day of Innovation and the National Best Innovation award ceremony is the highest recognition for the innovative achievements of Slovenian companies.
